The red wine RWT Bin 789 Barossa Valley Shiraz, vintage 2017 from the winery Penfolds has been rated in 2019 by Peter Moser with 95 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape variety Syrah from the region Barossa Valley in Australia.
Deep, dark ruby with an opaque core and purple reflections, brightening at the rim. Black berries, a hint of cherries, some nougat caramel, fresh orange zest, and floral nuances are underlaid with subtle oak notes. It is taut and tightly meshed, with ripe cherries on the palate too, supporting tannins, and savoury minerality. Long, with savoury herbs on the finish. Overall, it is still somewhat underdeveloped and has good ageing potential.
